Back in action. 5 dips in 5 weeks and everything was cut at the base and remounted so eggs didnt have a place to hide. Lost one frag in the process of about 130 so I can’t complain. I haven’t seen any more worms since the first dip so I’m confident that I killed the life cycle. Colors are off from the handling and dips as to be expected, pictured are a few corals that didn’t loose much color.

Rock scape was lowered and 60% of the acros were put back into the display, the remaining ones I think look better under the radion lit frag tank so I’ll grow them in there.

I’ll post some pics in a month or 2 as things settle in. This is month 8 of the system lol.

Chugging along. Colors and growth increasing on most of the pieces. There were a few stunted/light damaged pieces that I was tired of looking at so I moved them to the frag tank under much less par in a bluer spectrum. Should be easier for them to recover in there. Things are going well. Keeping it steady.

looking good. so will you move the frags that are growing well off those square frag tiles and glue them down? that is what I did before. gave me the ability to figure out where they grew well before glueing them permanently.

Thanks bud. I’ll just leave them and let them cover the tile and grow to the rock. Also gives me the option to move them without handling the coral until the full encrustment happens.
